THE place for your Sisters-related comments, questions and snippets of Sisters information. For those who do not know, The Sisters of Mercy are a rock'n'roll band. And a pop band. And an industrial groove machine. Or so they say. They make records. Lots of records, apparently. But not in your galaxy. They play concerts. Lots of concerts, actually. But you still cannot see them. So what's it all about, Alfie? This is one of the few tightly-moderated forums on Heartland, so please keep on-topic. All off-topic posts will either be moved or deleted. Chairman Bux is the editor and the editor's decision is final. Danke.

Popping in very, very late here, but I noticed that too. I wonder if that's true. hotstuff.se, a usually very reliable bunch, is charging 159 SEK
Think that's an import price.
They're charging 89 SEK (£6.5/€9.7) for the "Swedish" release (read: German) and 135 SEK (£9.8/€14.7) for the UK release at Megastore.
I ordered the UK releases from HMV for 360 SEK (£26.2/€39.1) total.

Nic: Are you sure that's the German release? I'm still wondering since no actual release date has been set for Germany except the UK import.
CDon (89SEK) and Ginza (99SEK) is also selling those now.
today the reissues were mentioned on StudioBrussel!
Their website says something like this:

Those of you who haven't ordered, support your local cd store, whatever it may be, and get it there, once it arrives. Don't support Amazon and big corporations, unless you have to. Music stores is where it's all happening. As they're slowly running out of business, next generations will be exposed to music on VH1 and MTV only (they may be already), and I won't waste words on these guys... I am myself at times guilty of online ordering, but I am trying to change that .
The people who buy online are usually the same people who complain that their really cool local Indie-Recordstore, where they bought all their Punk vinyls in the 80s went out of business years ago. (me included )
Put their heads on f*cking pikes in front of the venue for all I care.
In Daves case I wonder if he sell them through a store, or private? Then it depends on where he did buy his copies from. Directly from Rhino? - don't now if that counts...
But how about export sales, do they count? I guess a couple of us not living in UK have ordered from UK based stores.. hmv.co.uk, amazon.co.uk, play.com etc. Erm.
